Good night
It's stroke-time
Let's get paralyzed down both sides
Snake hips, red city kiss
And your black eyes roll back
Midnight Organ Fight
Yours gives into mine
It's all right

And the fast blood
Hurricanes through me
And then it rips my roof away with her fire hands
This is the longest kiss
Good night

Oh

And now I, I tremble
Because this fumble
Has become biblical
I feel like I just died twice
Was reborn again
For all our dirty sins

And the fast blood, fast blood, fast blood
Hurricanes through me
And then it rips my roof away with her fire hands
This is the longest kiss
Good night
Good night
And then I fall down
I stumble
And she said, and she said, she said good night

    This is probably my all time favourite song by one of my all time favourite bands. The one thing I love about Frightened Rabbit lyrics is the pure honesty. Songs like 'Keep Yourself Warm' and 'Twist' are written from the heart and I defy any man not to identify with them. This also makes Fast Blood a bit of a tricky one to make out. Is this just about a kiss or is it about sex? Which organs are fighting - is it the heart or the genitals? This song really can be read two ways. Maybe I'm a bit of a romamntic but I think it's about a first kiss goodnight and the emotions and adrenaline (fast blood?) that happen when you first kiss someone you really like. Then again if you've just listened to 'Keep Yourself Warm' maybe this song is purely about having sex. I hope not though as that would ruin it for me!

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
